I'll check it out. I know there is a bundle of grounds on the back behind the right side valve cover and the big one from the battery in the front left side. I'll scotch bright the paint off and die electric grease the connection.
It clears up after a while and I can drive it, it's not as peppey as that little v6 used to be, but the next time I start it even if it's 10 seconds after shutting it off just to see if it's fixed, it dose it all over again. I did notice the temp sensor is dirty. I'll clean that When I have some...
I haven't really changed anything as far as the computer goes. Just the egr valve but that's just vaccume. When I could get it to start and run, it wound run bad until the computer figured out what it was doing and then it would smooth out. But it seemed to have a bit of a misfire. I could hear...
That's what I did several times to make sure I didn't make a mistake. The last time I had it running it idled like a Harley and started to smoke through the air cleaner so I shut it off and slammed the hood.
All it says is 10°. And to "follow procedure in manaul" I don't have Said manual. I do have a Haynes manual and I followed what that said but Haynes manuals only get you so far.
I'll check for grounds again. I'm pretty certain they are all hooked up. I noticed when I plug the temp sensor back in the advance changes. Am I supposed to set 10° with it unplugged and let it give me more advance or am I supposed to compensate so I have a total of 10° after I plug it back in?
It absolutely does. When I had the after market "thermometer " in place of the original sensor it would run great from a cold start but after it got warmed up it didn't want to start. I put a new original type sensor in and that solved everything. Now I have this BS I'm trying to figure out.
I understand that, I have bought bad ones. The old one I took out and put in an aftermarket sensor for and aftermarket 3 Guage cluster. BRAIN FART. Once I realized the mistake I made there, the old one was long gone. I'll look up how to test them. I did notice the factory Guage don't move when I...
I suppose it's possible. I'll have to go through the book to see if there is more then one sensor. The one that I know of is new. I didn't see another one while the motor was out. Computers suck but the truck was $500 6 years ago and ran so friggin good.
I am in full agreement with that. That is the same advice i give people when they ask me for help.
I brought the #1 to TDC on the compression stroke, pulled the chain cover and distributor cap. Both dots were up and rotor was pointing at the oil pressure sensor. I put the new chain and gears on...
Hey all, I need help. I have a 1989 dodge d100 3.9. The thing ran so good before. It never didn't start, never left me stranded. It was a great little truck. I recently pulled the motor and trans to regasket and clean everything. New oil pump and timing chain while it was apart. Now I can't get...
Maybe so but it doesn't look nice under the hood. End game is I have a 318 to put in it and then I can get rid of almost all of the vaccume lines. That's a project for another day though so I can build it the way I want it and be done.
Hey all been a while since I posted on here. I've been working on my 89 d100 and now I have a question for anyone that may have done something like this. The truck has a 3.9 fuel injected engine, I'm pulling the motor and trans to regasket everything and clean it up. I would like to clean up the...
Well thanks anyway guys but I put it down in the ground last night and it sits way to low for my taste. I'm going for a nice stances truck not a snow plow. I now have to modify the stock arms to take a 3/4 bolt. Oh well. Thanks again.
Ok everyone. I know there is a million posts about this but I have a specific question about this. Hopefully I'm not the only one this has happened to.
I completely rebuilt the steering and suspension in my 89 d100. I bought 2" drop shackles for the rear just to reduce some if the rake from...
I am a manual machinist. Can you post a picture of the depth tool you have when you have time please? I might be able to make or just buy one. I'll check the new and old pinion gear when I get home from work to see if there is a depth stamped on one of them.
